According to the myth, it was created by the sphinxCrucius, and since then most of Esper's inhabitants have parts of their body replaced by etherium. [2] The stocks of etherium are measured in rods. Ultimately the Ethersworn are planning to fuse every living being with this metal. [3]

It is unknown how Crucius made the alloy; even Sharuum could only show how to thin existing etherium. The Seekers of Carmot believe that the substance is made from sangrite and carmot and they possess the Codex Etherium, which supposedly reveals the location of both. However it was revealed by Tezzeret that it was a fraud. [4]

The red substance, sangrite, is in fact a mineral that can only be found on Jund, thus explaining why the Esperites cannot craft new etherium. All etherium was originally crafted by Crucius, himself a planeswalker who could obtain sangrite in Jund. Nicol Bolas explained that sangrite is petrified dragon blood from a dragon who dies in battle. [5]

After the Conflux, the Seekers send emissaries into the other shards, seeking carmot at any cost. [7] It was revealed by Tezzeret that he is the Carmot. [5] Whether he meant Esperites or humans in general is not known. Later, the human Breya was the first to create Etherium from Carmot harvested from Jund. To commemorate this, she replaced most of her body with self-crafted etherium.[8]
